Voucherboys top 28 Magical Movies of all Time Part 12
We are continuing today with the Top 28 (the Top Ten bit) Magcial Movies countdown and have two fresh films selected for you today.
The criteria is that the movie had an impact on the audience and that it played more on the imagination of the audience than trying to trick them with fancy CGI. There will be 2 movies listed every day, so make sure you bookmark and get back to me every morning to follow along as the list gets ever closer to that number one Magical Movie.
06. The Crow (1994)
As brutal a story surrounding it in reality as the story itself is opened the worlds eyes to The Crow. The film paints a dark city abandoned by hope where crime and fear rules supreme. This dark saga is a worthy number 6!
A poetic guitarist Eric Draven is brought back to life by a crow a year after he and his fiancée are murdered. The crow guides him through the land of the living, and leads him to his killers: knife thrower Tin-tin, drugetic Funboy, car buff T-Bird, and the unsophisticated Skank.
One by one, Eric gives these thugs a taste of their own medicine. However their leader Top-Dollar, a world-class crime lord who will dispatch his enemies with a Japanese sword and joke about it later, will soon learn the legend of the crow and the secret to the vigilante’s invincibility.
05. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)
For our number 5 you have to accept imagination and fantasy from the get go. While the film itself slowly reveals the magic during the introduction you will have to accept that the Ninja and Asian Martial Art phase of Hollywood culminated in this.
Four turtles and a rat are transformed into a humanized state by a mutagenetic gel in a sewer. The rat becomes their mentor, and teaches them all he knows regarding Jinjitsu. The turtles use their newfound skills to combat the crime in New York City. But when their mentor is captured by an enemy from the past, can they hold true to what they’ve learned, and stay together as a brotherhood?
One word? – Cowabunga!
